Hello,

Does anyone have a copy of the above book ? What sort of nformation is in it ? Are any of the following nurses listed in it,

Elsie RT Bonar VAD, Hugh Kelly BRCS, Winifred Ronaldson VAD & Janet S B Urguhart BRCS

Thanks for looking,

Stewart

On a quick glance through, I cannot find Bonar or Ronaldson.

Hugh Kelly is lisyed as a Chauffeur , Certificate No. 12761, Passport No. 152686 serving at Rouen. Dept for reference is "Scottish", so I presume this means the Scottish BRCS.

Janet Sadleir B. Urquhart is lised as a Nursing Sister , cert no. 16063, passport no. 183556 also serbign with the Scottish Red Cross at Rouen.

Hello,

Thank you very much for taking the time to look them up. I knew nothing about them except that Janet S B Urquhar, on her MIC was ''Army Nursing Service May 1915-March 1917, Sister'' and that she entered France on the 20.03.1918. I also have a copy of her birth certificate.

Do you have any idea what sort of job Hugh Kelly would have done ?

Many thanks once again,

Stewart

Does this book show where people came from- which country?

If so, I have some queries.

Christine

PS On re-reading its title, is it a list of British Red cross personnel serving overseas, or a list of overseas personnel serving in the British Red Cross?

Norman,

I don't want to take advantage (well actually I do but I take abusive refusals pretty well!) but I have 13 names that I would appreciate a look up for.

If you would be willing please let me know and I'll PM them to you. If not, fair enough.

All the best,

Andrew
